I felt a but lazy today so I decided to get a quote on a tune up.

For plugs, wires, and a "fuel injector cleaning," Firestone in Jupiter, FL wanted $502!

I hung up on them. Ill buy the $60 worth of parts and do the job myself.

what?????? plugs/wires is an hour job if its your first time venturing if they are pre-gapped. buy a belt from autozone and a new box air filter and 2 cans of sea foam. yes 2

put a full can in the gas tank. 1/2 in the crank before your oil change (DO NOT DRIVE IT JUST LET IT IDLE FOR LIKE 5-10 MINUTES)

the other half just suck down the pcv. ive done this many times 1 can of sea foam cant get the job done imo
